Is that true? 90% of his throws are 5 yard uncontested passes, his receivers actually get seperation. His last TD throw should have been intercepted but still he looks in control and for the most part is making good decisions.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's good. I just went back and watched it again after you said that. He had all day. He looked at the safety and when he looked at his second read there was no one covering Anderson at all. He was ten yards open. I'm not sure that was such great recognition, I think most any decent QB would have seen and done the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maine-iac Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Jet's seem to have more talent on offense plain and simple. We had OC's who could run the ball and get guys open deep.  We went from having multiple recievers who could take the top off a defense to having a group of WR's that teams check off as a vacation day. Allen and Darnold could probably be almost interchangeable. Put Mills, Ducasse, and Miller in front of Darnold and ask him to throw to Zay and KB and I'm not sure he'd be doing as well. I still have hope Zay will come around but that is doesn't have a ton of life left. KB can't be slow and have bad hands and expect to last much longer either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domdab99 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 If the Bills ever get some decent players, Darnold and Allen are going to be battling it out against each other for 10 years or more, giving us fireworks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree that Robbie Anderson made a great catch and reached for the ball a little behind him, the Foster pass was five yards too short. The Darnold pass was very close to right on the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And certainly right about Bills quarterbacks not doing that. I'll settle for good recognition and good throw. Still should have been knocked down or intercepted by that same safety you said he did such a great job on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with what everyone is saying but I think the larger story here is that the WR's we have don't make plays like that and Robbie Anderson did. The throw in both cases was less than perfect and in both cases you can't really blame the WR if they don't catch it but Anderson did and Foster didn't and that is usually the way the ball bounces in Buffalo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is true. Anderson made a great play. Foster has not been making those plays. Although he is a UDFA playing in his first game in the rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darnold gave the Lions 7 points. Just handed it to them. One of the very very worst things you can do. His TD was very nice but also easily could have been another pick. Darnold had a nice run, Allen had two nicer runs. Darnold held the ball too long a couple times and got sacked, even though he had much better protection, Josh held the ball a couple times too long and got sacked. Darnold has yet to throw as many really nice passes as Josh did, although it's close. And they both had about a half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maine-iac Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Now that I think about it I don't see laundry on the field every time the Jets snap the ball either. It certainly doesn't hurt if you don't shoot yourself in the foot at the start of every drive.
